He got the domain name back when domain names where free to register at Network Solutions. This was back when domain names first became available to the general public.

Gary was just able to grab the domain name before anybody else. That doesn't make him a smart business man. Just the first one to grab it. I think Gary is a smart business person, but not in the adult market. The guy that stole sex.com from Gary knew how to market sex.com 10 times better then Gary. Gary seems to do better with the mainstream market.

I don't see why Gary doesn't make at least a pay site and promote it with sex.com (maybe it has and I don't know about it). He can at least see how much money he could actually make with a decent paysite that is promoted properly. If he wants to keep with the ppc thing that he has going now on sex.com. At least make the site more usable so that visitors will want to come back. Look how Google.com and Yahoo.com are just basic and easy to navigate. Sex.com looks like one big mess when I see it. I don't know how anybody finds what they are looking for on that site, visiting it for the first time. I can't see any visitors coming back to sex.com to find what they are looking for.
